An avid homesteader, Jess is no stranger to the need for food preservation. The time old method of canning is simple, but it can be daunting if no one’s ever taught you. So Jess is visiting the kitchen to teach you! An ideal method for items with lots of acid like berries, jam, jelly, tomato sauce and pickles, water bath canning uses boiling water to kill bacteria and create a pressurized seal. It’s a great skill for everyone to have, homesteader or not.
